Wishing not Weeping

There are famous Angel Statues in Cemeteries. The most famous is "Angel of Grief". She has her own entry in Wikipedia. There are replicas in Canada, Costa Rica, Cuba, Luxembourg, U.K. and U.S. There's one in Montreal's Mt. Royal Park. As I look through the U.S. listings, and there are many, where do I see one? It is near Longwood Gardens at the Longwood Cemetery in Kennett Square. That makes it my next destination when we go to Longwood. However, a day trip would be to Rochester in the Holy Sepulchre Cemetery.

Our Grimsby Angel, in comparison, is wishing and wanting, hoping and praying.

About Me

I am a photographer exploring two realms - the magic and wonder of plants, gardens and flowers in the natural world, and the everyday decays in the urban environment which are turned into abstract images.
